How many Jarheads here?


Recommended Posts

I just jotted some stuff down in Capt. Manieri's Reserve topic, and noted a couple of Marines there, then I just noted another Marine in another topic, and thus decided to see how many of "the few and the proud" are lurking around here.

Semper Fi!

Well my brother was a Major flying Cobras in Desert Storm, my son is a Cpl. with the 3rd FSSG in Oki and my father in law was with the 6th Marines as they hit the beaches at Saipan ... we buried him on this last D-Day. So for them I say ...

PS: Hey Chris Dion aka ArdRi69------

I noted your "Go tell the Spartans"

signature, run, don't walk to your

nearest bookstore and grab the paperback

version of "Gates of Fire" by Steven

Pressfield. It's a historically based novel

of the battle of Thermopylae as recounted

to Xerxes and his scribes by the sole

surviving Spartant from his deathbed.

AN AWESOME RETELLING!!!

Regards,

Oddball

Lee,

I find the arty and FO's in CM quite well done. I think it is the first game I've ever seen that handles appropriate and credible artillery effects. I've had some debates on this forum with some folks who think the arty is too responsive but I find it a very accurate portrayal. WWII arty was very responsive provided the FO's had comm...(some things never change). It's also very good to see a game that simulates FO's and makes the player have to think about their employment. In CM a good FO with a clear LOS can wreak havoc on a lot of bad guys...just as in the real world. Have a great day...out here and Semper Fi.
